Installing A 2000 Watt Inverter In My Service Van

This is a short video of my Inverter Installation. In it I show where overcurrent protection should be. #hvac #hvactech #hvactechnician #servicevan #inverter #inverterconnection #harborfreight

    I have had this same inverter in 2 pickups in the back shell. I am adding the 3rd install. Bought 25 feet of #2 fine copper wire and a 100 amp breaker like the one you used on the battery (I will find out if this breaker is big enough soon enough) . I ran both leads to the battery. In the flexible duct I got from Menards. I pre installed the wire in the duct before running it along the frame to the back of the truck. I didn't use sealed conduit as I didn't want it to hold water and freeze. I use mine for all kinds of things. Saws, RV, Dremels, grinders. Only thing I found that didn't like it was a conduct duct wire blower motor that was old. Very handy to have.

    Nice set up, I have a 2,000 amp inverter in my trunk, powers my wireless printer and microwave since I’m on the road and print paperwork daily. Beats driving to fed ex to pay for printing.

    Klein sells a portable power station, similar to a generator but basically a big battery. Also nice with those no power situations.

    Can you explain the 200 amp breaker and 150 amp fuse set up / install?

    So the smaller ground is just for reference and don’t need to be connected in a vehicle set up?

    I hav a van and how I keep the dust and dirt out is I open all the doors and windows and use a leaf blower to blow anything that will blow out. Then I make my kids pick it up🙀🙂

    Yes can be a pain to install.. have put a couple in emergency vehicles and you have to get creative on where to install them.. nice job on yours. You could put a high amp celinoid on an put it to key power if you dont want to take a chance on leaving it on..

    So I have mine setup the same way the only thing I didn’t do was add that fuse. It’s been working fine haven’t had issues. Is this dangerous?

    Y right next to your head? Better in back for charging etc...

    If you got usb on the inverter it's probably separate from the modified sinewave anyway. Can charge your tablet or phones makes no difference I would guess.

    Good thing about using your earth ground to the vehicle is if the vehicle becomes electrified it should trip the breaker in the inverter
